Effect of the allelic variants of aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH22 and alcohol dehydrogenase ADH1B2 on blood acetaldehyde concentrations.

Human genomics - 1 Jan 2009

Peng Giia-Sheun, Yin Shih-Jiun

Abstract excerpt

Alcoholism is a complex behavioural disorder. Molecular genetics studies have identified numerous candidate genes associated with alcoholism. It is crucial to verify the disease susceptibility genes by correlating the pinpointed allelic variations to the causal phenotypes. Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) are the principal enzymes responsible for ethanol metabolism in humans. Both ADH...
